Use this term in a sentence. â 1  I was an expert at stockholders' equity and knew everything about it and how it operated within our business world. â 2  The retained earnings and stockholders' equity were used in the accounting equation presented during the team meeting explaining our overall financial health.
Based on the FDAâs recommendation of .8 grams/kg of body weight, a 150 pound person would need to consume just 54 grams of protein per day. That is just 10-15 percent of your calories coming from protein. Eat an 8 ounce piece of meat in one of your meals, and youâve met your intake for the entire day.
Studies show that 12 percent of men and 24 percent of women over age 70 eat significantly less than 0.8 g/kg a day. These higher recommendations do not translate into a lot of extra protein. To figure out how much protein you'd need, take your weight in pounds and multiply it by 0.45. Then multiply by 1.2 to reach the recommended grams of protein per day. For a person who weighs 200 lb (90 kg), this would equal about 108 g of protein daily. Most meat, poultry and fish have about 7 grams of protein in an ounce. One cup of milk or one egg has about 8 grams.
